'''Kill''': inflicts [[Instant Death|instant death]] on any enemy that does not have the [[List of Final Fantasy XII Enemy Abilities#Safety|Safety]] passive ability. An enemy slain by Kill does not yield [[Experience Points]], [[Ability Points|License Points]] or [[Loot (Final Fantasy XII)|loot]].

===''[[Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings]]''===
'''Condemnation''': is Zalera's ultimate attack. Zalera warps the enemy to another world, and opens his right arm to reveal the shamaness who screams, calling a storm of dark clouds from which souls pour out and create a storm of twisters. The attack instantly kills all enemies with less than 9,999 max HP (6,999 HP for those with the [[List of Final Fantasy XII Enemy Abilities#Damage Resist|Damage Resist]] augment), and those with more are hit with [[non-elemental]] damage that can [[Break Damage Limit|break the damage limit]].

In ''[[Final Fantasy XII#Final Fantasy XII International Zodiac Job System|Final Fantasy XII International]]'', Zalera no longer casts Holy or Shock. Instead he has [[Cura]], [[Warp (Ability)|Warp]], and [[Death (Ability)|Death]]. He no longer absorbs Holy-elemental attacks. Condemnation's damage is randomly generated.

Zalera returns, along with some other Espers, as a Non-Elemental Ranged Rank III [[Esper (Revenant Wings)|summon]]. Though his nature is Holy, he is not classified as a healing unit like [[Ultima (Revenant Wings)|Ultima]]. Rather, he harnesses the power of light for devastating attacks.
   
  +
[[Chaos (Revenant Wings)|Chaos]] or [[Exodus (Revenant Wings)|Exodus]] must be obtained on the [[Ring of Pacts]] before Zalera's node is reached. Zalera is fought at the [[Paramina Rift]] in Mission 74: Dance of the Dead. Defeating him earns [[Basch fon Ronsenburg/Gameplay|Basch]] his [[Quickening (ability)|Quickening]], Apocalypse Shield.

Zalera

Zalera in Final Fantasy XII.

Heretic scion who wrapped the world in dark energies, seeking to take the souls of all living things unto himself. Created in opposition to Emet-Selch, Angel of Truth, and scion of light. Originally tasked with the judging of men upon their deaths, his soul was tainted by the curses of those who raged against the heavens, and seizing one of the gods' servants, a shamaness, as a hostage, he rebelled against his creators. Even now, in defeat, he clutches the shamaness to him in his right arm, and with the aid of her death-wail does he summon the soul of darkness to do his bidding.

Zalera the Death Seraph (死の天使ザルエラ, Shi no Tenshi Zaruera?, lit. Zalera the Angel of Death) is a recurring summon and creature in Ivalice. He is associated with the zodiac sign of Gemini, the Twins. His element is death, and his color sign is violet. He is a hellish angel with a shamaness grafted onto his arm and is known for summoning undead to fight alongside him. He is also referred to as the Mithuna Ascendant, which is the Sanskrit name of its zodiac sign as used in Jyotish (Hindu) astrology.
